“…A number of large clinical trials have shown no decrease in cardiovascular disease after antioxidant supplementation, however, and the importance of oxidised LDL in atherosclerosis is therefore an unresolved issue [2]. Several studies have demonstrated that LDL can be oxidised in vitro by cells associated with atherosclerotic lesions [3][4][5][6][7]. The mechanisms of LDL oxidation in vivo are controversial [1].…”

“…LDL oxidation is a progressive process resulting in the formation of mildly oxLDL (deÂźned by low lipid peroxidation derivatives content and only minor apoB modiÂźcations), and leading Âźnally to extensively oxLDL (characterized by high levels of lipid peroxidation derivatives and severe apoB alterations). LDL oxidation is promoted in vitro by a variety of oxidizing agents (Berliner & Heinecke, 1996;Chisolm et al, 1999) and is believed to be mediated in vivo by reactive oxygen species and free radicals generated by vascular cells (Witztum & Steinberg, 1991;Berliner & Heinecke, 1996).…”

“…Plasma LDL is transported across the intact endothelium and becomes trapped in the extracellular matrix of the subendothelial space where it can be subjected to oxidative modifications (9,10). Various cellular and biochemical mediators have been proposed to initiate or regulate LDL oxidation, but which enzymatic or nonenzymatic oxidative mechanisms are implicated in vivo is still the subject of debate and intensive study (11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16). oxLDL is a potent inducer of inflammatory molecules, but the substances within the oxLDL that are responsible for this effect are only partially known.…”
